The ZenFone 3S Max joins the ZenFone 3 Max models launched in late 2016
The new phone’s headline feature is its 5000mAh battery
The rear camera is capable, but battery life isn’t as good as we expected
Asus seems to be on a roll with new models in its ZenFone 3 range popping up almost every month. The company has now launched what it’s calling the ZenFone 3S Max, only three months after the ZenFone 3 Max launched. This might be seen as a knee-jerk reaction to the latest round of heavy-hitters in the low-cost space, and it might cause confusion in an already crowded market, but at least buyers get one more choice, and that’s something we’re always in favour of.
